hey everyone, as u may know i'm getting the gsxr in my sig painted to sell it. give me your opinion on color. i'm kinda stuck between the charcoal gray that it used to be, and black, but i've had votes for red as well. keep in mind, i'm trying to sell it, so i need a color thats appealing to everyone. the windshield on the bike is 'smoked' out, and the bike has gray wheels.
keep in mind, its a suzuki GSXR. not a honda or yamaha or ducatti etc...
i've included the option to change your answer just in case.
i appreciate your feedback, and hope to have this thing painted n sold SOON i need the money ha ha.


**EDIT***
I added FLAT CHARCOAL GRAY to the list. i'm not sure how a full one color flat color would look, but the wife thinks its a bad idea. i think it might be cool, but may not appeal to the 'street biker' crowd... ya know what i mean? so toss your opinions on that too if you don't mind ha ha

Its a lot less work to stick to an original color, easier to get the right paint, also, and bein what it is......
yeh its got a stealth look to it, If ya were gonna keep it id say yellow, or something custom lookin.
for resale, charcoal.

I say blue. since it is a GSXR. black and red remind me of CBRs and blue yellow and white remind me of yamaha. but every gsxr i've seen has been blue or white, so I'd try to make it stand out alittle bit. just my $0.02

this is my dilemma... if money wasn't an option, i wanted to do a 3 color, stock paint lines, with black, charcoal and a creme or icey white. but its already sanded down, fixed, and primered up. its literally ready for a squirt of color right now.

heavenly blade - i agree with you 100% on the colors reminding you of other bikes. thats NOT what i want. my buddy is interested in buying it and said he'd paint it red if he got it, to match his truck. but i think honda when i see red. especially cuz its a bright ass red.

i changed the poll, re-vote!!! read the edit on the first post
i told him that, and he's got another bike he's trying to sell. he said he'll buy this one if he sells the other one first, but if i find another buyer first, then its cool go ahead and sell it.
